I don't disagree, necessarily, as I do think he should've tried to schedule the commercial at a time that didn't interfere with a major event like the World Series...but, if the commercial was for someone you didn't hate as much as Obama, would you have quite the same outrage about it?

Sorry, but the programming schedules of major TV networks are not decided by you caring whether or not the World Series Game 5 starts 15 minutes late (that's all it is).

Don't worry, you won't have to see any more Obama ads once he wins

Yes, actually, I would. Commercials are obnoxious and should never be a priority. I would be frustrated no matter who or what the commercil

But this is delaying Game 5 by FIFTEEN MINUTES... just FIFTEEN MINUTES... it's not like it's an 8-hour Obama ad making it start at 4 AM... it's a half hour ad, making it start 15 minutes late...

So, the question is, why not just run it a little earlier, and not delay the game at all?

I agree with Houston. He should do it earlier. And stop defending him

Re: Tbs just laid a turd

It's inevitable that there would be a major political ad during a crucial game in a major sporting event.

If voting took place after the Superbowl you would see LOADS of political ads during that.

I'd be greatly surprised, though, if one of those ads actually altered the start time of the Super Bowl....

Because that would require more of Fox's schedule to get messed up. Say it started at 7:45, then Fox would have Seinfeld cut in half... so they'd have to either show half of Seinfeld or figure out some 7:30-7:45 filler...

Or cut out Seinfield and run the ad from 7:30 - 8.

Oh boy, cut out a re-run, they can't do that! :). I can't believe they did not put it there I did not know that it was atthat time! People can live without a re-run!

Yep, as usual.

Also, if the World Series games are starting at the same time as the LCS games have been....the game would be starting at 8.

Re: Tbs just laid a turd

But I think the campaign wanted to get more viewers by having the ad air right before the game.

I really don't ****ing care what the campaign thinks, they have enough ads! Think of all the money wasted on these ads that could go to something else!

Apparently you don't understand politics very well.

But, seriously, who cares if Phillies vs. Rays Game 5 is delayed by 15 minutes?

No, it is that I HATE many political things. Most politicians are idiots, and clueless. If we had a monarchy, we would not have to worry about promoting the elections

So... you propose a monarchy because you are upset that Phillies vs. Rays Game 5 will be delayed 15 minutes?

Yes let's have a king where the freedom of public elections and the freedoms will all enjoy can be taken away!

Freedom doesn't matter when you miss 15 minutes of Game 5 of the World Series!

Nobody's even MISSING any time of the game....the start is just delayed 15 minutes.

While I agree, RSR, that there was no need to delay the game, and the ad couldn't just been ran a bit earlier, you've veered off in another direction now. Really, monarchy? :confused:

America has shown its inability to decide. A monarch would not be elected, and time would not be wasted on voting. I feel a constitutional monarchy would not be that bad, but with the monarch having executive powers

Yeah, screw all that time that's being wasted on letting the people of the country choose their leaders!

Wow... Just wow... 15 minute delay turns into let's get rid of freedom... this is a tangent worse then turning a comment about Steve Harvey into a discussion about racism :D

RSR, you'd probably be best living in a dictatorship... you never have to worry about campaign ads because there are no campaigns! And the dictator can make every decision in your life for you!

If it doesn't reach Game 5, then there's no problem.

And remember, the game will not be going on during this ad. The start of the actual game is being delayed like 15 minutes.

Or if you're even trying to say anything besides stirring up some stuff.

But an anarchy could never work.

I just don't get why you are frustrated... you really can't wait an extra 15 minutes for Game 5 of Phillies vs. Rays?
